[RAGGA MUSIC PLAYS]

BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN

DID YOU GET THAT?

BOOM SOMETHING?

CONVENIENTLY,

IT'S THE TITLE.

"BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY-BOY BRAIN."

J.J.?

'GAT?'

GUN.

'BATTY-BOY?'

I KNOW WHA BATTY-BOYS ARE.

I THINK:

THE WORD 'BRAIN' IS UNIVERSAL.

"BANG GOES A GUN

IN A QUEER BOY'S BRAIN."

[MUSIC RESUMES]

GWAN PULL A TRIGGA

INNA NIGGA BRUDDA NAME

"GO ON, PULL A TRIGGER

IN THE NAME OF BLACK MEN."

SEN' A CHI-CHI MAN A HELL

WIT A SPIKE IN THE EYE

[MUSIC STOPS]

"SEND A CHI-CHI MAN TO HELL

WITH A SPIKE IN THE EYE."

IT'S JUST MUSIC.

JUST MUSIC?

[DANIEL]

MUSIC CAN BE INFLUENTIAL.

THAT'S WHY WE HAVE

NATIONAL ANTHEMS,

AND HYMNS,

AND FOOTBALL CHANTS.

SO IF THERE WERE

NO FOOTBALL CHANTS,

MUSIC CAN BE A RALLYING CRY.

YEAH, MUSIC CAN BE

A LOT OF THINGS.

BEFORE I FOUND ORLY,

MUSIC WAS:

THE ONLY THING:

THAT COULD HELP ME.

DID IT HELP YOU BE GAY?

WHAT MUSIC:

HELPED YOU BE GAY?

RUFUS WAINWRIGHT.

HIS FIRST ALBUM:

WAS MY COLLEGE BIBLE.

AND IF RUFUS TOLD YOU

TO GO OUT AND SHOOT PEOPLE,

WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IT?

NO.

WHY NOT?

[SAM]

'CAUSE HE'S A NICE

WELL-EDUCATED WHITE BOY.

AND WE'RE A BUNCH

OF IMPRESSIONABLE

JUNGLE-BUNNIES WHO DON' KNOW ANY BETTER.

IS THA WHAT YOU THINK I MEAN?

DO YOU KNOW:

WHAT YOU MEAN?

YOU FIND THIS MUSIC

ACCEPTABLE?

I FIND IT PAINFUL.

BUT SOME PEOPLE FIND THE SIGH OF TWO MEN KISSING PAINFUL.

IS IT RIGH TO MAKE IT ILLEGAL?

THOSE ARE THEIR ISSUES.

THESE ARE OUR LIVES.

ARE YOU REALLY SUGGESTING

THAT CHALLENGING BLACK PEOPLE

ON HOMOPHOBIA:

IS AUTOMATICALLY RACISM?

ARE YOU PLANNING TO PICKE ANY WHITE ARTISTS?

LIKE?

LIKE EMINEM?

GUNS AND ROSES?

KATY PERRY?

I NEED TO LISTEN TO MORE MUSIC.

HERE'S THE THING,

DANIEL.

BLACK PEOPLE EXPEC TO BE UNDER ATTACK.

IF YOU GO AFTER:

THE HANDFUL OF BLACK PEOPLE

WHO ARE MAKING ANY MONEY,

ALL WE'LL SEE

IS ANOTHER WHITE MAN

TRYING TO TAKE OUR POWER.

THIS ISN'T ABOU BLACK AND WHITE.
